In the AI era, Workplace mental health challenges are rising, eroding performance, productivity and your ability to retain top talent.
Join this People Management Insight webinar, in partnership with Wellhub, to explore ‘Return on Wellbeing 2026: Building a Top Talent Moat in the Age of AI’. Based on a global survey of 1,500 HR and benefits leaders across 10 markets, the report identifies the pressures that matter most right now and where current wellbeing strategies are no longer enough to sustain performance or protect your top talent.
The report reframes resilience as an organisational capability rather than an individual responsibility. Defined as the ability to sustain performance and energy through ongoing change, resilience is under strain as organisations navigate AI adoption, workforce reductions and economic uncertainty. The data shows this pressure is hitting high performers hardest.
This session will unpack how leading organisations are redesigning systems, benefits and ways of working to actively support resilience rather than leaving individuals to manage it alone.
What you’ll learn:
- How rising mental health pressures are impacting performance, retention and talent competitiveness.
- The key workplace stressors linked to AI, economic uncertainty and organisational change
- Where traditional wellbeing strategies are falling short
- Why resilience must be built into organisational design, not left to individuals
- Practical, evidence-backed actions to strengthen resilience and protect productivity
